(SMS) MxPx - You're on Fire

[Verse 1]
You're old enough to know it's not your fault 
You're strong enough to face your darkest conflict 
Now you've woken from your nightmare, and now you're fighting back 
And nothing can survive when you attack 

[Pre Chorus]
This road to healing, hurts more than anything 

[Chorus]
Now that you're on fire, your voice is like the wind 
Now that you're on fire, let life begin again 
Now that you're on fire, a new day has begun 
Now that you're on fire, you are like the sun 

[Verse 2]
You've spent some time along this lonesome road 
With no one waiting for you back at home 
Just breaking hearts and living free and easy 
Times have changed and now you're not alone 

[Pre Chorus]
This road to healing, hurts more than anything 

[Chorus]
Now that you're on fire, your voice is like the wind 
Now that you're on fire, let life begin again 
Now that you're on fire, a new day has begun 
Now that you're on fire, you are like the sun 

[Bridge] 
More than anything I'd like to see 
Better brighter days for you, for you and me 

[Chorus]
Now that you're on fire, your voice is like the wind 
Now that you're on fire, let life begin again 
Now that you're on fire, a new day has begun 
Now that you're on fire, you are like the sun 

Now that you're on fire 



Life... How hard life can it be. I’m not that young boy anymore. I’m living my 26 years old. I may be young, and also living some sort of wild and free life, but I’m mature enough to know that time heals. It doesn’t matter how hard things can be, time heals whatever happens to you. 

Sometimes you are so hurt that you even forget to forgive yourself. I’ve lived, not so long ago, a situation I was putting myself down because I forgave one person for what it had done to me, but I didn’t forgive myself. I was always thinking “what could have I done differently?”, instead of putting a stone over it, changing my mind and carrying on. It took me about 2-3 months to make this happen, and when I did it, I felt ten thousand times lighter. I could live along with all people around me in a better way. 

I once wrote about forgiveness, which is also the name of the song sung by Joey Landreth. You can check it on another post here 

And remember, when you wake up from this lonesome you’ll see everything new. You’ll get to higher places. You’ll have brighter days for you. Your social interaction will be even more lighter.
